[Bug 273354] x11/libinput: fails to build on stable/14

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=273354

(In reply to Tomoaki AOKI from comment #5)

The commit I referenced, which adds a timerfd implementation to FreeBSD, and so
add a timerfd.h file to out includes, happened shortly before stable/14 was
branched.

The problem will happen to anyone trying to compile libinput on FreeBSD
installed from sources after that commit. SO it applies to head after that
commit (14 for a short while later renamed to 15) and also to stable/14.

This simple patch fixes the issue.

I'm not sure what you mean by dependency hell. poudriere usage has no relation
to this, this only depends on the presence of the new timerfd.h include in the
installed system.

If no such include is present in the installed system, the port will grab the
one installed by devel/libepoll-shim which was recently fixed to work on head
after this commit. The timerfd.h installed by it does not cause params.h to be
included and no NOFILE symbol is defined.

Please note that devel/libepoll-shim will not install any timerfd.h file on
systems that already have one.

So, this patch should be included in FreeBSD, and x11@ declared a one week
timeout is of with their ports, so I'll respect that.

This should also be sent upstream, if Kenneth Raplee wants to do it please go
ahead.
